PROBATION AFTER DEATH.
a Distinguished Clergyman OfSyr0cus
Converted TO the NOW Doctrine.

A DISTINGUISHED ClergYm am OfSyrNc u Sc
Converted to the New Doctrine.
SYRACUSE, Nov. 27.-The orthodox clergy
of this city have been in a state of mind for
several days this week owing to the announce
ment that there would be published in the
Sunday edition of the Standard an article
over the signature Of clergyman resident in
Syracuse whose scholarship and devoutness
are outrankad by none and whose advancing
years crown life of earnest devotion to reli-
gion, in which he dissents from the orthodox
faith regarding future punishment and at
are alike astray from religion and sacred his
tory. The author of the proposed article is
the Rev. Ovid Miner, retired clergyman of
the Presbyterian church, who has been for
several years leading debater in the Minis
teria1 association which is composed of evan
gelical clergymen and meets weekly to discuss
theology. The greatest stir was made be-
couse Mr.. Miner was to print his article in q
Sunday paper, and great pressure has been
brought to bear to induce him to change his
mind. Tie, however, stands firm and yester-
day turned a committee of brethren away
from his door disappointed. The gist of
Mr.. Miners article is an attempt to show by
sacred hiseory and the scriptures that the
period of mans probation does not end with
death. The Calvinistic doctrine, even in its
modern phase, he considers awful Mr..
Miner has never shown any evidence of dis
sent to orthodoxy until now and his conspic-
uous position in the Christian world makes
his new departure more startling.

BERLIN, Nov. 27.-Emperor William to-
day received the president and vice presidents
of the Reichstag, who came to express the
sympathy of that body with the Crown
Prince. The Emperor replying to their ad-
dress said that the ailment of the Crown
Prince was severe visitation, especially in
view of his high position and his great abili-
ties for continuing the direction of the policy
of Prussia and Germany in a manner which
would have enabled the Emperor to close his
eyes in peace. What providence might fur
Their decree none could tell, but it was the
duty of all to bow to Gods unscrutable will
The universal sympathy which had been
shown in such a remarkable degree was great
consolation He regretted that he was unable
to open the Reichstag in person. He would
have liked to have told the world that he de-
sired peace although Germany was perfectly
prepared to meet attacks. He next alluded
to the satisfactory state of the country's
finances, which he said was also manifest in
the Individual States of the empire. Finally
in the course of a few words on the general
political situation he expressed regret at the
proposed resignation of M. Grevy.

Search ola Dead Street Reggarss Room
Reveals Seven Thousand Dollars In
Bonds.
BOSTON, Nov. 27.-About three months ago
Mary Smith, who for years has been known as
Boston as a street beggar, died, and it was
supposed at the time that she had not cent
in the world except what she received from
day to day to supply her actual needs. A
search of her room by policemen showed,
carefully concealed, registered government
bonds to the amount of upwards OF 81, 600.
The matter was brought before the Probate
court of Suffolk county, and the public adj
pninistrator, Stephen P. Tyndale, was as
signed to administer upon the estate. Claim
ants for the money were found in nephews
and nieces, who said that they were next in
kin, and that a son of Mrs. Smith, who went
to California thirty years ago, sand had not
been heard from for more than fourteen
years, must be dead. Mr.. Tyndale got the
case continued until inquiries could be made
as to the probability of direct heir at law,
and the result of that postponement has been
that satisfactory evidence was received from
California showing that the son of Mrs.
Smith is still alive. Among the effects OF
Mrs. Smith was a photograph which the
claimants of her property admitted was that
of her son, and deposition sent from Cali
fornia has copy of the same photograph,
the negative of which is in possession of
photographer in California. The principal
reason assigned by Mr.. Smith for not having
communicated with his mother was that he
was poor writer, which his signature to the
deposition indicates. Further proceedings
will be delayed until the arrival of Mr..
Smith from California.
